2011.06.24 TRIAL Day Twenty-seven (Morning Session)

[miimaa]

Judge Perry should halt the trial right now and assign her a public defender. Jose is clearly not qualified.

Went back through the transcripts:

CIndy said in testimony during LDB questioning that ladder was up June 17th. She then said it could have been the 16th or 17th under cross. She had earlier told Yuri Melich that the ladder incident was "sometime in early June".

About the doors: implied that Caylee couldn't/didn't open them. She couldn't unlock them.

She even mentioned the rubber covers that child proof door handles.

I'd like to thank everyone who puts a little "humor" in their posts. I appreciate it. And also I need to thank those who keep reminding us to stay strong and to keep believing in the SA. I for one really need this reminder, along with the one to breath deep and to sit on my hands LOL

 

[Whisperer]

Casey Anthony is going DOWN!!

 

[adb263]

Just want to say a big thank you to the administrator and mods of this site for keeping it professional and not a circus atmosphere like what is happening in the courtroom. Thank you all very much for all you do

Brown-Noser!!! just kidding!!

 

[KPSumms]

Anyone know???

sorry - just catching up on reading....he was trying to get in the CA and GA were having marital troubles back in 2008...that was the sidebar before the 20 minute break....no questions since then

I hate the fact that there is any such thing as a "theory of defense" I've never followed a trial before and naively thought the DT went with what the defendant tells them. It kerfunkles me, that's for sure.

ETA: What's with the popup ads on WESH? I'm waiting for a skateboarder to appear.

 

[Openmyeyes]

Perry talking and shaking his head no about something.

Very interesting question“@RichardHornsby: Could Lee Anthony be willing to testify he walked in on George and #CaseyAnthony.
by bobkealing via twitter at 9:38 AM

Oh dear Lord! If this happens I will shoot blood out of my eyes. This trial is getting way too crazy. These people are sick.

 

[liltexans]

Lee and George seem to look over toward where #CaseyAnthony is sitting but I can't tell if they've made eye contact. -jfell

People v Angel Mateo
Share |
People v Mateo 2004 NY Slip Op 01143 [2 NY3d 383] February 24, 2004 Court of Appeals Published by New York State Law Reporting Bureau pursuant to Judiciary Law § 431. As corrected through Wednesday, July 21, 2004

[*1] The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
v
Angel Mateo, Appellant.
Argued January 14, 2004; decided February 24, 2004

{**2 NY3d at 393} OPINION OF THE COURT

(ii.) The Defense Strategy

Despite knowledge that the People were prohibited from eliciting the chronology of the confession or defendant's demands to have his family released, and despite the trial court's repeated warning that the preclusion order would be revisited based on what ensued at trial, the defense opened with its own theory explaining the Matos statement: that defendant was motivated to confess in an "obvious and elaborate ritual to cover for his wife." In the opening, defense counsel told the jury that defendant's statement "was nothing less than Mr. Mateo taking everything his wife did onto his shoulders." Disregarding his own earlier assurance that he would not exploit the time gaps, counsel also urged the jurors to "pay close attention to the circumstances and chronology of the statements."

Briefly glanced through this...If you look about 1/2 way down the page, it's starts with the bolded portion of my post...JMHO

Justice for Caylee

 

[TakeNote]

looks like kc is reading her script?...then staring off....

 

[rose222]

I would be very surprised if Lee "admitted" to the abuse. If he claims that George did molest Casey then he couldn't deny that he his inappropriate sexual relations with his sister. He wouldn't want to ruin his reputation would he? Doesn't he want to live a decent life with a good job etc? Maybe they all have plans of making millions with book and movie deals and moving to another country after this is over. Let's see.

 

[tehcloser]

WFTV saying they will get this sidebar.

 

[Broderick]

Bill S said we can get a transcript of every sidebar from the clerk. WOULD Love this one!!!!!!!!!

 

[Eidetic]

What/who does she keep staring at motionless like this?
